FORGET OUR BAD PAST

I READ: 1 Corinthians 15 : 1-11

Why did Jesus have to die for 3 days? Because the number 3 symbolizes completeness. His work of redemption is perfect for us. Besides that, the number 3 symbolizes how our life is divided: our past, our present, our future. This means that through His death and resurrection, God has given us victory over our past, our present, and our future. The devil likes to use our failures in the past as trump card to torture and trap us. Thank God that we have been freed from all of our past failures. Whatever mistakes we made in the past, the Lord has forgotten them and has forgiven us. All we have to do now is keep on moving forward, without looking back again.

I DECLARE: Philippians 3 : 13 – 14 : …forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead….

I DO: What actions will I take today after meditating on the Word of God?

I PRAY: Pray as guided by the Holy Spirit.
